AMD Ryzen 9 5900X

AMD has clearly decided this battle in its favour. Giant Intel has to play hard to catch up again. At the moment, the classes for the blue team have moved back one point and we have to compare 5s with 7s. The fact that AMD still has a Ryzen 9 5950X up its sleeve should only be mentioned here in passing out of courtesy.

That is unusual. It seems Intel has slept through the times a little. When it comes to CPUs, Tema Blue is clearly behind Team Red. This comparative test shows that without ifs and buts. The good thing: CPU prices are developing nicely - as long as AMD doesn't get greedy. The fastest desktop CPU in the consumer sector comes from AMD...

AMD is self-confident: the price premium compared to older CPUs is a hefty 150 euros. Nevertheless, gamers without a Ryzen 3000 CPU should go for the new processors when upgrading. All others will continue to gamble and work well with the 3000 processors.
